Abstract: We give an algorithm which computes a presentation for a subgroup, denoted $A{M}_{g,1,p}$, of the automorphism group of a free group. It is known that $A{M}_{g,1,p}$ is isomorphic to the mapping-class group of an orientable genus-$g$ surface with one boundary component and $p$ punctures. We define a variation of Auter space.
